What Is a Father

What is a father, you ask? A father is a man, who is strong Strong for the people he loves; And a person in your eyes, who never does wrong. He plays ball with the sons he may bare Or, he may tell his daughters who to watch out for He lets his children know he does care, And when they’re small he takes them, for a drive. A father will go out, with a son to a bar He’ll walk a daughter down the isle And when we are gone and not so far, He’ll let us know, we can always come home. A father can become a grandfather To have grandchildren to call his own He doesn’t mind when they start to bother; As he knows, the parents are very near. So as I write this You shall always remember What, a father is.
